This beginner-friendly study will help us get to know the Bible, understand how its stories and people connect, and see the bigger picture of Scripture. No previous Bible study experience is necessary — whether you’ve read the Bible for years, are just beginning, or simply want to learn more, you are welcome! The location will be determined based on the size of the group. Please RSVP to Jessie Kempf by September 28 so we can have a book ready for you. Email is jessiek1923@outlook.com or text/call at 573-673-5152. And feel free to invite a friend! Women do not need to attend MLG to participate.
